I have a beach house in Destin and a 2 BR condo in FWB (Okaloosa Island), and they both perform exceptionally well. 

Mostly that is land value, but it does give you a reference point.  

I’m in Marco Island.

We also attend the CFRI meetings on Merritt Island, when we've got the chance.  

Their 6 load balanced internet connection is rivaled by none on the Island and is therefore a magnet to all digital nomads.

I've looked for a bit but not too in-depth but I know properties out here are ridiculously expensive.I don't mind going to the surrounding areas (NJ or NY state) but I would like it to be accessible to manhattan via Train and a drivable distance.my question is, does anyone have any experience with buying properties in NJ, upstate, Long Island, even maybe eastern PA (big maybe). looking for a good ROI and somewhere not too far from the Boroughs.

I would love to connect with anyone in the Long Island, New York area and start a group to talk about wholesaling, flipping, rentals etc.

Hello, I am an investor I’m Long Island, New York.

I own a furnished 2 bed 1 bath sfh with pool.It's on the Dutch Caribbean island Bonaire.

Depending on the location, types of buildings, and overall condition, you may be better off holding onto them long-term (after the renovations) or getting rid of them before renovations.Some parts of Manhattan, Brooklyn and Queens are seeing huge spikes in vacancies as folks move West to New Jersey, North to Westchester and East to Long Island and South to the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida.
